Hey guys,

About 6 months ago I started driving my 94 Mark and not long after, decided that I hated all the saddle color in the interior. So... I recently began changing that.

The first thing I did was buy some black seatbelts, and seatskins from jaime. Pics installing them...

Haven't had an opportunity yet to replace the seat belts as I havent removed the quarter trim yet.

Here are some other pictures...

The A pillar trim is black now, the quarter trim is going to be painted black on the top half to match the rest of the interior.

Next items are a black head liner, black package tray, and black sun visors... then also install the seat belts.

I also need to find cheap black carpet to recover the bottom half of the center console. Then all of the trim on the top of the center console is going to made black too, the purpose of the black message center buttons and everything down the center of the console black is to kind of make a stripe going from the instrument panel to the arm rest.
 
Well, I want to ultimately have the interior be completely black, but I missed out on some black door panels I had my eye on... There is a black mark in the junkyard with a black dash I may go back for... I figured I would try the 50/50 interior for a bit and see what I think about it. I like being different, never seen a saddle interior that looked like this before. Its not any extra work to keep the mocha in the interior for now. When summer gets into full swing i'll probably decide what I am going to do with it.
 
i did the same thing to my 93 last fall, but i changed everything...i mean everything...i was black ext with tan int...now its black on black...havent finished the dash yet...ran out of warm weather in the fall, and havent had a warm or nice enough weekend yet...beautiful during the week when im working, but crummy weekends so far...ive been meaning to post some pics...but procrastination...i will be pick whoring soon enough..once i get my new Headlights (thanks Jamie), 6000k HID, seqential tail lights and a nice cleaning and i will be doing a step by step for my dash removal
 
In the next few weeks, I'm doing the same thing. I have every piece and part I need except for the carpet which Jamie is in the process of sending. I'm going from this interior

he got some of it from me chris. dan i still have a pair of really nice black door panels, i have both rear panels minus the ash trays, i have the kick panels, sill plates, and two really nice seat switch panels that arent broken and a really nice dash too, but if you want to save alot of headache, tape the dash off and use duplicolor's vinyl paint they sell at the local parts stores in low sheen black thats what i used to paint my dash in my 93 black, i changed every single part except the dash from mocha to black. i'd sell you the kick panels, the rear seat panels, the door panels, the dash all for $140 bucks if you come get it, if you pay me now, i'll hold it all as long as you need me to. i got a guy who wants the driverside door panel for $100 alone, but i dont want to split the pair.

and terry your carpet is in my garage packed and shari is gonna do a label for me in a few minutes, will be going out tomorrow dude!!
i fit that sum bitch in a 37 inch VIZIO LCD tv box dont ask me how, when you cut the tape, its probably gonna blow open and knock you over lmfao!!

Great, all I need is another explosion. I'll open it out in the street and not near the house. I need to let it set out in the sun anyway to let the bends and folds work out. Maybe I'll let my dad open it. He needs the :q:q:q:q knocked out of him anyway.

Same here.

I'm going to do the repaint route when I do mine. I have a saddle int from the parts car, and grey in the LSC. I'll be putting in saddle pieces and painting parts of the grey black.

Might put in wood floors, also. :D
 
I'm going grey & black w/ black seats. BLack & tan looks good!
 
everyone here knows i despise the tan interior but i think the black and tan is.................ok.....i could possibly drive that......maybe lol
 
Looks a whole lot like my interior... I even purchased a black diagnostic center just like the one you just got there. Same blend of colors! I'm looking for a nice black carpet though. I can't wait to come across one. I think I'm going to hit the junk yards soon!
 
You should leave it as it is and lower it, add some 22's and put a Reese's peanut butter cup logo on the door of the car. It would then magically be worth 10 grand to some idiot out there.
